Busy weekends , Manic weekdays

Sometimes I wonder why time seems to fly pass us when we are having a good time. Both Friday and Saturday seemed to just zoom pass me without saying their proper goodbyes. Now that it is Sunday night again, I can sense the panic manic monday mode coming up. Am crossing my fingers, hoping that the coming week will be well and smooth sailing. My intituion tells me something else different though... * sighs a ' boy oh boy i wish i am not working ' sigh.

-----------------------------------------
Saturday evening was spent with Liz and friends :) We had a simple meal at Liang court followed by drinks at Pump room and then later on at this ' wah so china' setting place called China one. ( lots of ang moh frequent the place apparently)




Here's how I spent my friday evening.

Dinner -- Ootoya

Chris and I both ate the highest calorie count dishes in Ootoya. We both had the Charbroiled Hamburger Steak.. hers has the Japanese Style Demiglace Sauce.

The whole set is about 1200 calories

This chicken set comes with
sweet orange dip.. very nice :)


ceaser salad


Lady's finger and melon soup
* comes with the set*


Dining at Ootoya always gives us a sense of satisfaction



we played 'monsters'


-----------------------

Surely we have to walk off some of those calories , so we decided to explore the sky garden at Orchard Central


very long escalator that brings us to
the Sky Garden



very unusual tree!
can someone tell me what tree this is?

Okay, the soup is not too bad. Strangely, the mucilaginous okura goes rather well with the soup!

But for the side-dish, I think it is not for everyone. Very strong vinegar and ginger combination! Haha...
